Benefit High Beam

There's no doubt about it, Benefit has become a staple make-up brand in my make-up bag and High Beam has been there since the beginning. High Beam is a satin pink highlighter designed to be used anywhere you want to create a sheen. Like all Benefit products, it's expensive, coming in at £15.50 for the bottle which is around the same size as a large nail polish. It can also be purchased as part of a set including Valley of the Stars and Realness of Concealness which both retail at £22.50 but have 5 smaller products in each. It's not cheap - but I would recommend it if you're a sucker for make-up as it lasts for a long time. I've only ever seen it sold at Selfridges, Boots ...  Read the complete review

Benefit High Beam - can't live without it! A fantastic highlighter, light reflector, and face sculptor. This, ladies, is a must have item in your beauty bag as far as I'm concerned. Use sparingly (you can always add more, it's harder to take away when you already did your make-up!) I use it down the centre of my nose to make it apear thinner, and I also use it in a sort-of C-shape near my eyes leading to the top of my cheek bones (that's what the counter lady told me to do - she's a genious!) You can also add a bit of it to your moisuriser or your foundation to give you that dewy look that all the models have, or add some to your brow line. I ...  Read the complete review

I've always been a big fan of highlighter from when I first started wearing make up. At first I always used to just use a little on my brow bone but as the years and my knowledge progressed I began to learn all the tricks and exactly where to apply it. If applied in the right way it can make such a difference to your look. Much like the word would suggest highlighter is used to emphasise features by drawing the eye to them. The favourite place to apply this is on the cheek bones, to emphasise them and to give a glowing, healthy look to the face. A little on the brow bone can open up the eye area, a dot in the corner of the eye can lighten the eyes and draw ...  Read the complete review

Benefit, the luxury make-up brand has over 2000 counters in more than 30 countires. There is no wonder that most people who wear cosmetics or even some that don't, have heard of the brand and it's brilliant reputation for selling some of the best make-up products. The High beam product is very different to the highlighters I own, I only have highlighters that are the same colour as my skin tone so the fact it is a satiny pink liquid highlighter really intreguied me. Benefit claims that it accents cheekbones and brow bones for a radiant glow. This is most definitely true, my cheekbones especially looked amazing once I had applied this gorgeous satiny ...  Read the complete review
